RE: Simple Script issue..??
Change the direction of the kill input. It may be simpler to use pkill. Maybe just change up the script to take in the input as a var and then pkill -f $var -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of wayne Sent: Wednesday, December 10, 2008 6:43 PM To: Main PLUG discussion list Subject: Simple Script issue..?? ps -A | grep $1 | cut -c1-5 | grep -o [0123456789]* | kill WILL NOT WORK.

kill won't take a list from stdout, but if you | xargs kill, then it'll happily do it. ps -A | grep $1 | cut -c1-5 | grep -o [0-9]* | xargs kill or kill -9 On Wed, Dec 10, 2008 at 6:54 PM, Bryan O'Neal [EMAIL PROTECTED]wrote: Change the direction of the kill input.

Re: Simple Script issue..??
There are a few ways to skin the cat... I always use awk to print out the command I want to run and then pipe to bash to execute it. It lets me see what it's going to do before it does it. IE: ps -A | grep $1 | cut -c1-5 | grep -o [0123456789]* | awk '{print kill $1}' then if it's what you want: ps -A | grep $1 | cut -c1-5 | grep -o [0123456789]* | awk '{print kill $1}' | bash On Wed, Dec 10, 2008 at 6:42 PM, wayne [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: ps -A | grep $1 | cut -c1-5 | grep -o [0123456789]* | kill WILL NOT WORK.
